Very distressing to us visitors & I'm sure the residents of St maarten & St martin! It is very sad for the victims family.

Carol...you might want to put a graphic warning on that link. I for one was shocked to see the lifeless victim laying on the sidewalk.

OK, they changed it since I linked it then, as the picture wasn't there before. Unfortunately the DH often shows such images.

I'm confused. The link was to St. Maarten Island Times not DH.
Having said that, the pictures can certainly be disturbing to some readers. My thoughts go out to the family.

Sounds like the island will be more safe.
One less known murderer/perp on island. Hope they find the other guy and lock him up.

Make that 2 shootings today. Just read on another sight of the 2nd one. Very unsettling.

I bet it's related to the first one. Crazy! In St Maarten, messing with someones drugs, money or women will get you killed. It's usually the same story.

You can probably leave out " In St. Maarten" and the rest is true most everywhere
